DALANO BANTON (POR)

UNDERDOG

NBA ROLE: HIGH-VOLUME PLAYMAKER

Dalano Banton’s a diamond in the rough: second-round prospect* with great playmaking potential; 6’9 ball-handler who goes about his job at a smooth pace - Banton doesn’t rush, likes to weave around opponents to make plays; tantalizing outside shooter - effortless form with a casual release point: visions of easy volume down the line (needs to further advance off the dribble); shown raw ability to score between the lines with floaters and pull-ups - could evolve into a go-to skill; sees the floor well in transition, utilizes size to survey the field and make plays; great finish to the 2023-24 season: Banton flashed brilliance as a relentless attacker - very bright potential in PDX - can he reach Star UnderDOG status in 2025?

*1st Canadian ever drafted by the Raptors
